Description:

Just as the description below states. This can occur during regular crash recovery, after a failover or restore, or during certain database state changes (e.g. offline to online, read-only to read-write, and vice-versa).

(Books Online description: “Occurs when database recovery is waiting for recovery of memory-optimized objects to finish.”)

Added in SQL Server version:

2014

Removed in SQL Server version:

N/A

Extended Events wait_type value:

Maps to the XTP_RECOVERY map_value in sys.dm_xe_map_values.

The map_key value in sys.dm_xe_map_values is 923 in 2014 RTM. After 2014 RTM, you must check the DMV to get the latest value as some map_key values have changed in later builds.

Other information:

I have not seen this wait type be a noticeable contention point, but be aware that the database will not be available until the thread waiting for this wait type completes.
